DEE DEE RAMONE

About Me

Dee Dee Ramone (Douglas Glenn Colvin) (September 18, 1952 - June 5, 2002) was a German American songwriter and bassist, best remembered as a founding member of punk rock band The Ramones. +++ Though nearly all of the Ramones' songs were credited equally to all the band members, Dee Dee was the group's primary lyricist, penning songs such as "53rd & 3rd", "Commando", "Rockaway Beach" and "Poison Heart". Dee Dee was the bass guitarist for the group from their formation in 1974 through 1989, when he left to pursue a short-lived career in rap music under the name Dee Dee King. Afterwards, Dee Dee returned to his punk roots and released three little-known solo albums featuring brand new songs (many were used later on Ramones records). Dee Dee also got married to Argentinian Barbara Zampini, toured the world playing (his songs, Ramones songs and some old favorites) in small clubs and continued to write songs for the Ramones until 1996, when the band retired.
